Isoft will plug in imaging to Hospital IT

CHENNAI:  In partnership with software developer CDP Medical Developments Ltd., iSOFT, an health IT company, has come out with a diagnostic imaging solution. This iSOFT PACS (Picture Archiving and Communications) solution, it claims would have the functionality, architecture and flexibility to successfully compete on both functional and commercial terms.

Together with the company's RIS, which is installed in more than 270 sites, iSOFT will be able to leverage its expertise and complementary imaging systems across its global footprint, it says in a press release.

This is designed to create a seamless Electronic Health Record. The PACS will integrate with existing solutions, including iSOFT's Radiology Information System (RIS) and Hospital Information System (HIS). The PACS is also embedded as part of LORENZO, iSOFT's next-generation health IT solution to electronically connect patient records across the full spectrum of health care provision.

iSOFT offerings cover public and private radiology and cardiology departments addressing medical image repository needs.

“Our new iSOFT PACS is a significant development in allowing us to offer an unsurpassed portfolio of solutions that electronically connects patient record content across all health care boundaries," said Andrea Fiumicelli, iSOFT's Chief Operating Officer.
